Psychosis By Estoppel

I think that's what I'm going to call my next book: Psychosis by Estoppel: How I Defrauded the Federal Government of a Quarter Million Dollars with the Help of the Justice Department!

Don't you just love the fact that the Justice Department can't distinguish between a person who is a victim of false sworn statements that he is mentally ill and potentially violent -- which is fraud; and threats by a mentally ill person that he might commit an act of violence -- which calls for a threat investigation.  Now really, does it take a Rhodes Scholar to appreciate the not-so-fine distinction between fraud and violence?

Don't you just love the fact that the Justice Department can't distinguish between a person who reports or complains that he is a victim of false sworn statements filed with a government agency alleging that he is mentally ill and potentially violent -- i.e., the individual is a victim of a crime; and threats by a mentally ill person that he might commit an act of violence - i.e., the individual is the perpretator of a crime?

Victim, perpetrator, fraud, violence: those are rudimentary concepts.  You'd think the Justice Department would have figured out the difference between those concepts by this time.

Thank God, Justice Department employees have problems with reading comprehension. I guess I could title my book How America's Schools are Failing Us But Filling the Pockets of Scam Artists!

Perhaps the uncompromisingly lofty and elaborate linguistic demands of my blog posts and their widely varied range of syntactic nuances and densely textured web of primary and secondary meanings confounded Justice Department personnel when they initially read them.

Look, people, I have a verbal IQ of 136 (99th percentile). Can the Justice Department employees who read my blog posts say the same?

I think if terrorists had any brains, they'd give up violence, stop building bombs, and flying airplanes into buildings; and instead file for Social Security Disability. With the help of powerful lawyers -- and incompetent bureaucrats -- they could turn that into a career!

During the period November 2009 until January 14, 2010 someone at the Justice Department logged onto my blog every day. Whenever I referred to the law firm of Covington and Burling, someone at Covington and Burling logged onto my blog. On the Friday after Thanksgiving (November 27, 2009) that individual at Justice read my blog all morning, from about 9:00 am till about 12:30 pm. I subscribe to a blog tracking service that tracks people who log onto my blog: http://statcounter.com/.  Recommendation: The Office of Inspector General needs to track down that individual and give him or her a reading comprehension test. That individual is a menace to the U.S. Department of Justice.

On January 15, 2010 the Justice Department sent two officers to my residence to interview me; they were concerned that I posed a risk of harm to the spouse of a Covington and Burling partner. I smell conspiracy! But then, I suffer from paranoid schizophrenia.

And by the way, is there anybody at Justice who isn't a former Covington and Burling partner or spouse of a Covington and Burling partner? Ha!

Of course, this post is a joke. I appreciate the severity of my illness.

Three psychiatrists have diagnosed me with paranoid schizophrenia: Dimitrios Georgopoulos, MD; Albert H. Taub, MD; Betsy Jan Cooper, MD

Three psychiatrists diagnosed me with bipolar disorder: Napoleon Cuenco, MD; Daniel Tsao, MD; Suzanne M. Pitts, MD

The following psychiatrists have prescribed anti-psychotic medication for my illness: Rhoda Ruttenberg, MD; Betsy Jane Cooper, MD; Henry C. Barbot. MD; Didi Bailey, MD; Jeremy Carpenter, MD; Umar Rahman, MD. Dr. Pitts prescribed lithium for bipolar disorder, which underwent a mysterious spontaneous remission in 1993, a few months after it was first diagnosed.

Can anyone seriously believe that I have defrauded the U.S. Social Security Administration? That would mean that I have fooled a lot of psychiatrists. It’s not possible!

It's a common belief among psychotics that they do not suffer from psychiatric illness. If I talk about my not having mental illness, that's actually not inconsistent with my having severe mental illness.

Imagine you tell someone that you went to early morning mass, and the person replies: "You start drinking so early in the morning? Are you an alcoholic? Do you go to AA?"

Apply that to the events of Friday morning January 15, 2010. The Justice Department understood the bare facts, but was unable to make any meaningful interpretatations of my behavior. And these are the people protecting the homeland?
